Daffodil ran a reasonable Melbourne Cup trial when fourth placing (and hree lengths behind Viewed. When she returned she had a cut below the knee.
"The leg's quite swollen, there's a bit of skin off and some bruising to the bone and the vet's given her some treatment," trainer Gray said.
"But we've got a fortnight to get over it and Garry said it's all go to the Melbourne Cup. She's run fourth in a Caulfield Cup so she's got to be a chance to run in the money."
Jockey Chris was keen to retain the ride on Daffodil for the Melbourne Cup. He said he was keen to stay aboard as he looks to emulate his Cup victory on New Zealand mare Jezabeel in 1998.
